Confirmed accurate, was having the same problem. It got to 99% verified, then hung for a minute or so. It completed and gave a message that 2 files had failed to verify and would be re-downloaded. After download, game launches normally.

county_coroner your advice does not help.I deleted whole game files via steam app, then did clear install and CZ does not crash but there is one horizontal green line io the bottom of the screen and is it very dificult to control game via mouse. so there is still something bad.Why Steam did this update although it is not possible to play my legal bought game!!!? There is no information about fixing this problem on the Steam or Valve page! now, I need to search a version with crack if I want play it... :-(thanks a lot Valve for your "smart" fix of my favourite game. Dear Valve why do you spit upon your customers?
